Status Color Description
Pass Green The resource monitor is currently working.
Fail Red The most recent test involving the associated resource failed. For some resources, such as network, this includes statuses such as tardy, time-out, and unreachable.Check the Alert Summary page or the specific monitor for possible alert details. This status can also identify an internal error that prevents the resource from being monitored.

Disabled Dark Gray The resource monitor has been disabled and is not currently monitoring a resource.
